    The thing is, Siri cannot even tell you what month it is. Try it, “Siri, what month is it”.

    I thought you may have been exaggerating when you wrote this, but I asked Siri just now what month it is, and it replied with “I don’t understand”. Unreal. 
    Now try "is it April?"

  • Inside Apple Books -- the best app for book lovers

    Shame that they're so rough on the eyes when using an Apple device.  An e-bookstore without an e-ink reader is a losing proposition.

    If you don't already know, perhaps you should pause on commenting in public until you've spent 15 seconds figuring it out.

    Such as?

    I am obviously not one of those people, so am asking why.  Your answer is not illuminating.
    Are you retired? If so then don’t worry about it. 
    I am not.  I work in enterprise software development.  I have seen nothing significantly useful from this AI revolution so far, just a lot of fakery, deception and disruption of trust.  These are unequivocally bad things to my mind.

    So I ask again, why would I want to run an AI model?  Locally or otherwise?
    It's probably best that you don't use them -- leave it to others. Just stick to your comfort zone. 
    If you can’t think of any answers it’s perfectly fine to just say so.

    Excellent work by the EU.  Apple dug their own hole here.
